Formal Hazard Reduction Methods (@ Design


Stage)
1. Design Hazard Analysis
2. Failure Analysis

16
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

16

1. Design Hazard Analysis


A hazard analysis should be conducted for every
design, and the designer should keep a
permanent record of the analysis.
The analysis should consider both the hazards of
normal operation and the hazards that might arise
from typical failure or misuse.

17
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

17

1. Design Hazard Analysis


In hazard analysis the designer asks and answers four
questions:
1. Identify: Have we identified all hazards (obvious or
hidden)?
2. Eliminate: Have we eliminated the hazards
(wherever possible)?
3. Shield: Have we shielded users from hazards when
they cannot be eliminated?
4. Warn, Remedy, Recall: Have we provided remedial
action when shielding is not possible (by warning
users, by recalling products for repair, by providing
escape routes, and so forth)?

2. Design Failure Analysis


A failure analysis examines the consequences if a single
component of a large system should randomly fail.
Failure analysis is intended to find which component failures
could lead to a disastrous failure of the whole system.
Formal failure analysis techniques are complex, so they are
typically applied only to very large systems, such as
electrical power plants, aircraft, or computer control
systems.
The two best-known methods:
1. Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and
2. Fault Tree Analysis (FTA).

20
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

20

Designer's Checklist:
following steps can eliminate most hazards:
1. Find and apply standards and regulations.
2. Conduct formal design reviews.
3. Carry out a formal hazard analysis.
4. Carry out a formal failure analysis (when design
complexity justifies this).
5. Warn consumers and/or clients of hazards.
6. Prepare and distribute instruction manuals.
7. Use state-of-the-art design methods.
8. Maintain complete design records.

such items as personal protective equipment won’t
protect anyone if not used properly.
Education should include the following:
Training workers to use tools and equipment safely.
Educating workers about the hazards of their jobs.
Training workers about basic safety policies and
procedures.

Safety In the Design Process

38

Including Safety In the Design Process


The designer is expected to optimize the design,
reduce manufacturing costs, and eliminate
unnecessary parts (also called "value
engineering").
In addition, the following four steps for reducing
hazards should be routine:
1. Eliminate Known Hazards
2. Follow Established Design Standards
3. Follow Laws and Regulations
4. Follow Good Engineering Practice
39
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

9/29/22

1. Eliminate Known Hazards


The Code of Ethics requires professionals to protect the
public, so the first step is to eliminate obvious hazards.
For example, in building design, a high walkway is obviously
dangerous; the designer must include railings for safety.
Designers also have an obligation to remove concealed
hazards (that is, hazards that are not obvious to the user).
When a hazard cannot be eliminated, the designer must
shield the user from it, if possible, and warn the user about
it. For example, a lawn mower may have a hazardous
rotating blade that cannot be seen by the user.

40
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

40

1. Eliminate Known Hazards


The blade is needed to cut the grass, so it cannot be eliminated.
Therefore, users must be shielded from the blade, and they must
be clearly warned that contact with the blade may be lethal.
Another example of a concealed hazard is a random flaw in a key
component. For example, aircraft have some parts that, if they fail,
will cause the aircraft to crash.
The designer must specify that such critical parts must be tested to
detect flaws and inspected regularly to ensure that old, worn, or
damaged parts are replaced.

41
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

41

2. Follow Established Design Standards

The designer must know and follow (or exceed)


the accepted standards-whether they are required
by law, are industry standards, or are simply
company design guides-unless there is a
convincing analysis to justify deviating from the
standard.

42
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

42

14
9/29/22

3. Follow Laws and Regulations


Everyone must follow the country, local and
applicable safety laws and regulations.
For example, the OHS (Occupational Health &
Safety) laws to protect workers, and
environmental laws to protect the environment.
The designer must know (and follow) these laws
and regulations.

43
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

43

4. Follow Good Engineering Practice


In the absence of design standards or
government regulations, the designer must simply
use good engineering practice.
It is reasonable to expect a designer to examine
older designs (particularly if they have failed) to
see what lessons can be learned, to conduct a
methodical hazard analysis of a new design to
find unexpected or potential dangers, and (for a
complex system) to conduct a failure analysis.

Three strategies of prevention:


1. Frequency strategies
2. Severity strategies
3. Cost strategies

47
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

47

1. Frequency strategies
seek to decrease the number of safety related
incidents through reviewing incidents, conducting
careful analysis, and developing appropriate
preventive plans in response.

48
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

48

16
9/29/22

2. Severity strategies
It focus primarily on incidents that are more
serious in nature such as those involving death,
major injury, long term disability, impact to many
individuals, or significant property loss; reports on
these incidents are constructed from the
perspective of different work environments such
as construction, infrequently occurring situations,
and high-risk conditions.
49
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

49

3. Cost strategies
It places emphasis on avoiding the incurring of
high expenditures related to incidents; does not
make injuries or sicknesses the foundation for
investigations or measurements of impact instead
focusing on the financial impact.

Ergonomics

52

Ergonomics
Ergonomics is a growing scientific field that focuses on
maximizing productivity, efficiency, and worker safety
and comfort through workspace design.
Ergonomics is sometimes referred to as human
engineering or human factors engineering.
The goal of ergonomics is to choose environmental
elements that make employees safe and comfortable
which in turn improves their productivity.
This means that a workspace should be made to fit the
worker, not the other way around.

53
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

53

General principles used in ergonomics:

1. People vs. Machine


2. Designing jobs to fit people
3. Work smart, not hard
4. People are not alike

54
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

54

18
9/29/22

1. People vs. Machine


Humans and machines have varying capabilities
and strengths that should be utilized in design
decisions.
For example, humans can better distinguish
different audio signals in a noisy environment.
However, machines are more adept at completing
repetitive functions with exactness.

55
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

55

2. Designing jobs to fit people


Jobs should be designed with a specific individual
in mind.
Careful attention should be given to a person’s
qualifications.
If a person is expected to adjust to a job or task
for which they do not have the required skills, the
likelihood of mistakes and accidents increases.
Job expectations should be adjusted to fit the
individual.
56
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

56

3. Work smart, not hard


Increasing productivity and efficiency should not
be accomplished by asking workers to do more,
but rather by determining a better way to
accomplish the goal.

57
“We equip the next generation of Filipino Architects & Engineers” Prof. Roque Senga www.RSenga.com

57

19
9/29/22

4. People are not alike


During the design process for equipment,
operations, buildings, or entire systems,
designers and engineers do not know the
individual characteristics of workers who will
ultimately use these resources.
Designers should consider the unknown of
elements such as skill level, physical size, and
attitudes.

Conclusion (Importance of Safety)

60

20
9/29/22

Importance of Safety
1. Safety is important for a humanitarian reason. We have a
moral responsibility to keep employees, co-workers,
customers, and society in general safe.
2. Safety is important for a legal reason. We are obliged by
laws and regulations to meet certain safety standards. These
laws and regulations are necessary because different people
have different definitions and standards for safety. The laws
and regulations provide common standards for everyone to
follow.
3. Safety is important for a cost reason, including both the cost
of human life and property. Cost calculations need to include
money spent paying for both of the following:
a. The negative consequences of poor safety (such as injuries and
damaged equipment).
b. Preventive measures to minimize safety problems.
